The article describes transformations of the traditional patterns of fairytaleness in Boleslaw Lesmian’s adaptation of the stories of Sindbad the Sailor from a book of Arabian Nights. Lesmian’s version is so far-reaching reinterpretation of the “Arab stories” that it forms a new pattern that can be seen as a modern literary fairy-tale. A symptom of modernising the fairy-tale is a shift in stylistic tone and “autobiographising” the fairy-tale. The direction of the transformations reflects the poet’s aesthetic affinities, e.g. for grotesque, as well as some of his psychical and emotional inclinations. The key motifs and fictional threads of Adventures of Sindbad the Sailor contain literary transpositions of Lesmian’s likings and prejudices, fascinations and idiosyncrasies, in other words – his phantasms. The analysis refers to one aspect which focuses on the motif of hunger and eating, the latter transforming into perverse culinary obsessions.

The article refers to Boleslaw Lesmian’s manuscripts which in 1944 the poet’s wife and daughter took away from Poland. Following a long peregrination, the materials were found in the collection of Harry Ransom Center in Austin (USA). Attempts to raise the Polish authorities interest in them failed, and thus the manuscripts stayed abroad and have for many years lacked scientific research. The author of the text focuses on the benefits of a philological analysis of the survived manuscripts, which reveals not only the way Lesmian perfected his texts but also their shape being the closest to the author’s intention.

The article concerns the issue of musicality in the pantomime entitled Skrzypek opetany written by Boleslaw Lesmian (1878-1937), the famous Polish modernist poet and writer. It opens with the description of the genesis and of the content of the analysed work. The main part of the article deals with the fairy-tale convention so characteristic of Lesmian and realised in his Skrzypek opetany with the help of elements of a musical character. Subsequently, all the aspects of musicality (and references to music) were analysed in detail, in an interdisciplinary approach. This analysis includes also the chosen issues of a theoretical Lesmian reflection on rhythm, song and dance.
